    Very nice. I especially liked the part about compensation.

    There are lots of things! But I'm not going to brag for him, I'll just let Newsweek tell you about how great he is...

    Of all of his accomplishments, I particularly like this one:
    Ended research into Y2K preparedness

    Makes you wonder what W and Obama were thinking. If it weren't for President Trump, Federal government would be continuing such research until the year 3k probably.

    Actually, that could potentially be bad, assuming that the same mitigation strategies may be even more necessary when we get to 2038, which is when the standard UNIX epoch time will overflow an int32.

    Hmm..., I did not know that! Interesting.

    But according to how stuff works, it's not really as big of a deal to fix than the y2k problem. Also, is this a unix problem or C language problem?

    Anyway, supposedly PCs will suffer a Year 2116 problem. 64 bit Windows NT will suffer a Year 2184 problem.

    Macs will face similar problems in the year 29,940!

    Anyway, as long as we have Trump as president, we probably won't have to worry about these problems. We now have a year 2018 problem!!!

    So Trump's starting a trade war with China? China is talking tariffs, and it looks like they're gonna hit Trump voters hard.

    Cant say i'm sorry. Sounds cold blooded but tis what it is.

    Yeah I thought it was pretty funny and smart, hitting specific materials that would MOSTLY affect right-wing "working class" consumers.

    This could hurt the tech sector in the long run too, if PC parts end up going way up. You know, that one money-making sector left in America that isn't military. :/

    Great, as if video card prices weren't bad enough already with all these cryptocurrency goofballs buying up all the stock.

    I've started to think that Putin still has a direct line to Trump, convinces Trump on what to do..and Trump in turn keeps making the WORST POSSIBLE choices for this country.

    It's one thing to have certain opinions or situations where it can be argued about whether or not it's a good thing, but over and over again, it's clear whatever Trump does is the worst idea even if his sheep don't know any better, being fed b.s. constantly
